W. David Wakefield
Professor
Department Chair & Professor - Child and Adolescent Development
Brief Biography
As one of the original founding members of the Department of Child and Adolescent Development, one of my consistent priorities has been expanding students’ exposure to evidence-based practices encompassing developmental processes of children, adolescents, and young adults. As a multiracial (Black/White) faculty member, as well as being the first in my family to earn a doctorate, I am highly committed to creating viable pathways for undergraduate students to pursue advanced degrees.
